Thus, for example, the compounds of the formula (1) according to the invention which have one or more centers of chirality and which are present as racemates can be separated by methods known per se into their optical isomers, i.e. enantiomers or diastereomers. The separation can be carried out by column separation on chiral phases or by recrystallization from an optically active solvent or using an optically active acid or base or by derivatization with an optically active reagent, such as, for example, an optically active alcohol, and subsequent removal of the radical.

Furthermore, the quinoline derivatives of the formula (1) according to the invention can be converted into their salts with inorganic or organic acids, in particular, for pharmaceutical use, into their physiologically acceptable salts. Acids which are suitable for this purpose are, for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, acetic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, embonic acid, malonic acid, trifluoroacetic acid or maleic acid.

Moreover, the compounds of the formula (1) according to the invention can, if they contain a sufficiently acidic group, such as a carboxyl group, be converted, if desired, into their salts with inorganic or organic bases, in particular, for pharmaceutical use, into their physiologically acceptable salts. Bases which are suitable for this purpose are, for example, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, lysine, cyclohexylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine and triethanolamine.

1-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-(4-quinolyl-carbonyl)piperazine

2 g (11.5 mmol) of quinoline-4-carboxylic acid were suspended in 80 ml of DMF. With stirring, 1.74 g (17.2 mmol) of N-methylmorpholine and then a solution of 8.95 g (17.2 mmol) of Py-BOP (1-benzotriazolyltripyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate) and 2.56 g (11.5 mmol) of 1-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)piperazine in 25 ml of DMF were added to this mixture. The mixture was stirred at RT for 12 h, the DMF was distilled off under reduced pressure and the residue was purified on a silica gel column (Kieselgel 60, from Merck AG, Darmstadt) using the mobile phase dichloromethane/methanol/25 percent ammonia (90:10:1 v/v/v).
